The Mid Devon market town of Crediton is only 6 miles from Exeter and well connected by both road and rail to the city. Its a bustling place with a pretty town square boasting cafes and shops and plenty of community events. The main High Street with its shops and services runs east to west, and towards the western end of town, and on the northern side of the valley, are some of the best rural views from the town out across the rooftops and fields to Dartmoor on the horizon. This stunning view is sure to be a huge attraction for many buyers of this property, combine this with the fact its a spacious bungalow with generous south facing gardens, level access from the drive and garage and its a winning recipe. The bungalow was originally built in the 1970s and therefore does benefit from a large plot by modern day standards. Its brick cavity walls under a tiled roof and with gas central heating and uPVC double glazing, its an economical property to run.
The entrance hall is central and gives access to the large living/dining room which is on the rear of the property, benefitting from the southerly aspect and that incredible view from the large picture window. Theres a fitted kitchen with room for a table and then a family bathroom which serves guests as well as the two double bedrooms, both a good size and with built in storage. In addition to the ground floor, removable wooden steps from the hall can be used to access a large loft room, ideal for an office or store and a further area of loft. If this isnt required then of course, the steps can be removed and just used on one level.
Outside, theres a driveway providing off-road parking for up to 3 vehicles which leads to the single garage. A covered car port area is very useful and is currently fenced (removable) so its ideal for those with pets and younger children. The garden runs around the three remaining sides with various designated areas. Theres a shed and greenhouse, soft fruit and vegetable beds and a sizeable area of lawn too. The current owners really enjoy the garden and its been laid out to encourage wildlife whilst being pretty and productive, plus plenty of places in which to sit and relax and take in the garden and of course the view. Its worth mentioning that once on the drive, its level to access the bungalow (just a step in) and theres pathways all around on this level. So although its a generous plot, access is able to be gained all around for those where mobility is a factor.

Set in the Vale of the River Creedy, amongst gentle, rolling hills and verdant pastures. Sincerely picture postcard. Once the capital of Devon, Crediton is famed for its inspiring sandstone church and for being the birthplace of Saint Boniface in 680 AD. Its high street is a vibrant place, abuzz with trade artisan coffee shops, roaring pubs, a farmers market and bakeries, jam-packed with mouthwatering delights. For those commuting it has hassle free transport links into Exeter and for schooling a prestigious community college (Queen Elizabeths). In addition, it boasts a brilliant gym & leisure centre for New Years resolutions, two supermarkets for the weekly shop and a trading estate for any practical needs. All neatly held in a single valley.

What Other Related Technologies Does PropertyHeads Use, and Why?
Tracking Pixels: Our advertising partners may use tracking pixels or similar technology to measure the success of the sponsored posts or other advertising products they use. A “tracking pixel” (also sometimes called web beacon, or clear GIF) is a tiny piece of code, invisible to the user, placed on a webpage or in an email and used in combination with a cookie, to link a given activity or impression back to the user; the advertiser includes it in its content so it can measure whether our members interact with that content (for example, by clicking to view an offer). We may set our own tracking pixel on an advertiser’s website so we can measure whether our members found the advertiser’s content effective or interesting, by tracking whether the sponsored post prompted members to take advantage of the advertised offer. This information helps us assess whether sponsored posts and other advertising offers are relevant and interesting to our members and successful for the advertiser.
